"Ling Tian, why are you here? What just happened here?" Qingmu came to Ling Chen and asked in a quick voice.
"I came here to visit my sister. Other than that, I didn't do anything else. Just when I was about to leave, this tree suddenly grew out. I don't know what happened." Ling Chen answered truthfully, and
Aoki stood closer, and he could clearly feel the emotional turmoil from Aoki that was so strong that it almost condensed into substance. He asked: "What exactly is this Elf Tree?"
"The Elf Tree is the tree of origin of my Elf clan, the Tree of Life!" A deeply excited old voice sounded from behind. Granny Kumu walked slowly towards this side, blinking her old eyes filled with tears.
He looked at the Elf Tree emerging from the water without blinking: "Unexpectedly, when I was about to die, not only did I wait for the liberation of the whole family, but I also saw the rebirth of the Elf Tree. I really died in peace."
"Tree of Origin? Tree of Life?"
"That's right." Qingmu nodded, raised his head slightly, looked at the light of the Elf Tree, and said with infinite melancholy: "No one knows the original name of the Elf Tree, but in the ancient times when gods and demons danced, it was a tree
The sacred tree that carries the endless power of nature. It grows in this fairy spring, and the fairy forest is also born because of it. As it grows, the power of nature contained in it becomes more and more intense, and finally condenses into a spirit.
, gave birth to the first spirit of nature...which is the highest belief that our elves have always had - the goddess of nature."
Granny Kumu followed Aoki's words and said in an old and hoarse, but as thick as a mountain voice: "She has no fighting power. Her power attributes are sacred, natural, purifying, kind and life. Although she is a spirit body bred by the Elf Tree
, but in the hearts of us elves, she is the supreme god. Because it was she, with the power of the elf tree, who cultivated the first elf... and that is why our elf family exists. Without the goddess of nature, all of us
Elves will not exist in this world. In essence, the goddess of nature is also an elf, and we who were cultivated by her are also natural spirits with the same attributes as her. Therefore, she is also the highest ancestor of our elf family."
"So... that's it." Ling Chen nodded gently. He heard the word "goddess of nature" from the elves more than once, and he felt that their belief in the goddess of nature was far greater than that of Shenyue.
The supreme being of the world, the Moon Goddess. And in the Chronicles of the Forgotten Continent, he did not find any record of this "goddess of nature". It turns out that she is not essentially a "god", but a creature similar to the Lucky Cat.
"Spirit". It's just that one is the spirit of nature and the other is the spirit of exotic treasures. But in the hearts of the elves, she is the true god.
"So, the Elf Tree disappeared later?" Ling Chen said thoughtfully.
"Yes, it disappeared a long, long time ago... No, it went into a long sleep with the Elf Goddess... and has been sleeping until today." Granny Kumu's eyes filled with tears, and her rickety body tried hard to pose.
With a pious gesture, she worshiped the reborn Elf Tree... The day that many ancestors had been waiting for was finally arrived by her today. "That was probably ten thousand years ago. At that time, the Forgotten Continent had just suffered a disaster called
The calamity of the 'Shura Disaster', although this calamity finally subsided, it almost paralyzed the entire Forgotten Continent. Even the strongest Moon God Clan and the strongest orc clan Taixu Dragon Clan were severely damaged. At this time
, a clan of demons that had been gathering momentum for a long time suddenly appeared and brought chaos to the world, causing disasters all over the Forgotten Continent that had not yet escaped the shadow of the "Asura Troubles", and the people were in dire straits. Its leader, the Demon Emperor, was extremely powerful, and his strength was no less than that of any of the three highest goddesses of the Moon God.
At that time, the three goddesses of the Moon God Clan were all severely damaged in the battle with Shura, the Moon God Envoys suffered countless losses, and the Taixu Dragon Clan was also closed down due to the Shura disaster."
"So, the Moon God Clan found the golden crow, the sacred beast with the strongest destructive power and the biggest nemesis of the Demon Clan, and then went to the secret realm of the elves to let the goddess of nature lead the elves to solve the disaster caused by the demons. Mercy
Naturally, the Goddess of Nature would not refuse. She led the entire Elf clan out to annihilate the Demon clan together with the Moon God clan and the Golden Crow. At that time, there were tens of millions of demons in the Demon clan, and their overall strength was extremely huge. After a long period of experience,
After a fierce battle over time, they were finally wiped out, and the Demon Emperor also died in the flames of the Nine Suns of the Golden Crow. But after that, the Golden Crow never appeared again, and his life or death was unknown. The Moon God Envoy also suffered a large number of casualties, especially our elves.
The losses were heavy... Destroying the demon clan can bring stability to the continent. Even if there are countless deaths, our clan has no regrets. However, during that tragic battle, the goddess of nature was invaded by a large number of demonic auras. At the end of the war,
A month later, he finally could no longer maintain his 'spirit' state and returned to the Elf Tree. Another month later, the Elf Tree also began to decline until it withered completely... and died. In the end, only a dry one was left.
tree species, buried deep in the fairy spring."
This is a secret belonging to the elves. Now, I told Ling Chen without any reservation, which was obviously a sign of trust in him. Ling Chen listened quietly, and then nodded slowly: "So...
That’s right. That is to say, the seeds of the Tree of Nature have been in the Fairy Spring all these years and have never sprouted or grown? Has the goddess of nature never appeared again?”
"Indeed." Granny Kumu said sadly: "Do you know why the elves were so prosperous back then and are now so withered? Yes, it is because the elves have a worse reproductive capacity than any other race, but when the goddess of nature exists,
At that time, the reproductive capacity of the elves was no less than that of humans. Everything was due to the sleep of the goddess of nature and the tree of nature. They carried the source of power and life of the elves. Without the power of the tree of elves, we
The power of the elves will become weaker from generation to generation, and the gestation of the next generation of elves will become extremely difficult. Today, only a mere two thousand of the elves that were once prosperous at that time are left."
"So, now that the Elf Tree has grown again, will the power of the elves be further enhanced, and it will be much easier to give birth to the next generation?" Ling Chen asked.
"That's absolutely right!" Aoki's face showed a comfortable smile. He opened his arms and faced the Elf Tree: "This is the breath and power of the Elf Tree in the record. I feel that all the cells in my body are beating happily.
, my elf power is also about to start, like a bud in spring, wanting to grow again... It's great, our elf family has finally truly gained a new lease of life."
Perhaps, the decline of the elves can be alleviated by combining with humans and using human reproduction capabilities. However, the elves born after combining with humans are no longer pure creatures. The elves will never do it unless it is a last resort.
Such a choice was made. At this time, the Elf Tree miraculously reappeared, and the elves no longer needed to carry out plans to combine with humans. The crisis of decline had been fundamentally resolved.
"This is why we have been desperately protecting the Elf Spring and not letting anything pollute it. Because the seeds of the Elf Tree are in the Elf Spring, and generations of ancestors have been longing for the Elf Tree to sprout and grow again throughout their lives.
.The Elf Spring is the last pure water in the world, and it is also the only natural spring that can promote the growth of Elf Trees. If it is polluted, it may no longer be able to promote the growth of Elf Trees. Therefore, from generation to generation, the Elf Spring
These are places that my elves must protect to the death, and we will never allow foreign creatures to approach or touch them."
"Ling Tian, did you and Cai'er really not do anything here?" Qingmu asked cautiously. The Elf Tree should not suddenly appear for no reason. Something must have happened here just now.
Ling Chen thought carefully for a while and then shook his head: "After Cai'er and I came here, I just looked at Shui Ruo from the sky for a while. Cai'er stayed with me and didn't go anywhere else.
We didn't touch anything, we didn't even say a few words. Just when we were about to leave, a green light shot out of the water, and then the Elf Tree suddenly grew."
Ling Chen thought carefully about the scene after his arrival. From the time he arrived to when he was about to leave, because his heart was full of Shui Ruo, he did not make any unnecessary actions or say any unnecessary words. Oh...
If there must be something extra, he remembered that when he finally looked away from Shui Ruo, he seemed to have shed a tear... But the sudden growth of the Elf Tree could not have anything to do with his tears.
"...Why did the Elf Tree suddenly appear? Could it be that something happened here when we were not here?" Aoki said to himself in confusion.
"Look at Cai'er, there seems to be something wrong with her." Ling Chen reminded Qingmu and Granny Kumu. From the moment the Elf Tree broke through the water, Cai'er's body has been shining with pure green light. Her whole body
People seemed to have lost their souls, looking at the Elf Tree in a daze, the small body suspended in the air motionless.
Granny Qingmu and Granny Kumu had already seen Cai'er's strange behavior when they arrived, but they didn't show any surprise. Granny Kumu said slowly: "Don't worry, the light on Cai'er's body is because she is too close to the Elf Tree.
, thus being reactivated the power of elves in her body, that is to say, her power of elves is reawakening and growing further under the influence of the Elf Tree, and will become stronger and purer than before. Any elf close to the elf
This is the case for all trees. Haha, after thousands of years, the Elf Tree finally reappeared, and Cai'er was also lucky enough to become the first Elf to bathe in the power of the Elf Tree... Oh?"
Before she finished speaking, Granny Kumu's voice suddenly stopped, a look of astonishment appeared on her face, and Aoki's expression also changed slightly in an instant.
Because the green light on Cai'er's body suddenly expanded more than ten times in an instant without any warning, and formed a green aperture with a diameter of five or six meters. Along with it, it also expanded an unknown number of times in an instant.
The power of elves. This extremely rich power of elves made both Qingmu and Grandma Kumu feel slightly suffocated.
"What's going on?" The astonishingly powerful aura made Aoki, who had divine power, take a step back, and then was deeply shocked: "Even if the power grows again under the Elf Tree, it will not grow to the level at all.
This level...this strength of power has almost surpassed me!"
Ling Chen got closer to Cai'er, and his body was pushed out more than ten meters by the sudden elf storm. When he heard Qingmu's words, he was shocked: Is Qingmu still strong after growing up? Although Cai'er was not weak before,
His strength is that of a fairy in his early 40s, but Aoki is a level 100 Great God!
